Phone owned for more than a year

It's 2019. I've had the Blade Z Max for a year. Probably the best phone I've ever used. It's looking a bit rough from some rough use, so was thinking about getting a replacement phone. Nothing affordable on the market comes close to either price or quality. This phone is amazing! So after much searching what's my choice for a new phone? Another Z982 Blade Z Max. Just ordered a new one online ;)

Phone owned for less than a month

I've had this phone less than a month and it's a bang for buck phone you just have to try it out for yourself. Also the camera is amazing to say the least. I've been playing with the bocca effect and I'm blown away that a phone this cheap could pull this off. Thanks zte. Looking for more of this Company.

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I'm on my third phone. All day long I get error messages that "app will not respond". I've been to 4 stores and each one has told me that they are having a lot of problems with this phone. MetroPCS won't stand by their garbage phones so I will be looking for another provider.
